<p>A device to be used in performing chest exercises comprises two interconnected levers (1) to which standard weight plates may be attached via holders (9). A torsional spring (6) provides resistance to the bringing together of the free ends of the levers (1). To use the device, a person, after affixing suitable weight plates to the device, lies on his back and grips handgrips (7) of the levers (1) near their free ends. He then pushes the device upwardly in a bench-press type motion, and forces his hands together against the resistance of the spring (6). The U-shaped frame is of use in other standard exercises such as squatting movement, calf raises, bent over bows, and shrugs.</p> |
